Had an amazing time at Download!
I was nervous. This was the first festival I had been to by myself but everyone was lovely and I made friends instantly. As for shifts, being able to choose my preferred pattern was extremely useful and I didn't even find the night shift hard.
Thank you for a great time at Download.
